....which one,the fighter from 15 years ago or the bloated old man of today?Pyramid_Party;3623159; said:Good FIght. They should put Manny up against Mike Tyson next time.
No, the guy from Punch Out.krichardson;3623262; said:....which one,the fighter from 15 years ago or the bloated old man of today?
IDK, I heard alot of booing for Pac before the opening bell. Cotto beat top to bottom, beginning to end.Nemesis529;3623113; said:I don't know, but the only round I saw cotto running his "arse" off in was the 11th. 8-10 Cotto was still putting in some fight, though apparantely already having lost the fight. I think it was important for Cotto to at least make it to the 12th round for his pride. There not going to stop the fight in the 9th just because that was the prediction.
Not to say it wouldn't have had the same outcome(pac winning), but I think fighting in Vegas, where close to the whole crowd was going for pac, played a bit of a roll in this fight also. If you didn't notice, every time pac landed a punch the crowd went crazy, making Cotto more nervous, and fueling pac. If it had been at MSG, it might have been a closer fight, but I still think pac would have won it.
